ReviewsQ (8/00, p.127) - Included in Q's "Best Metal Albums Of All Time" Q (10/96, pp.186-187) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...their defining moment....the title track is not so much the best song on the record as the greatest rock single ever recorded, three minutes of genuinely hair-raising rollercoasteresque Grand Prix tank racing superfast guitar-belch rock..." Kerrang (Magazine) (p.51) - "[A] breathless, breakneck demolition of vintage rock 'n' roll, played with lashings of distortion and attitude..."
EngineerCameron Webb
Additional informationIncludes liner notes by Steffan Chirazi. Personnel: "Fast" Eddie Clarke (vocals, guitar); Lemmy Kilmister (vocals); Phil "Philthy Animal" Taylor (drums). Recording information: Whitla Hall, Belfast (08/04/1980-09/15/1980). Photographers: Alan Ballard; Graham Mitchell . Feted by bikers, respected by punks, Motorhead exemplified rock's outlaw chic. On Ace Of Spades their speed-metal attack exploded with unparalleled fury. Thrashing guitars and primitive drums underpinned vocalist/bassist Lemmy, whose blooded-throat roar enhances the trio's aggression. Mind-numbingly basic and deafeningly loud, they savage rock's pomp and circumstance, rivalling 'Louie Louie' for simplicity and excitement. Chock-full of anthems for the dispossessed (witness '(We Are) The Road Crew'), Ace Of Spades is a classic of its genre. Motorhead exude the same cartoon personae as the Ramones, and as a result inspire a similar affection.

  • Not the best of Motorhead

    Not the best Motorhead album. Two copies of same tracks, one live and one studio. Who ever produce the live disc should be shot, its shocking production and hence sound.
